I move gently with the tides
As they are guided by the moon
Two lovers walk beside me
Under love's spell they swoon

My color sometimes varies
From deep green to sapphire blue
I'll cool you down in Summer
As my waves envelop you

Many vessels travel upon me
As they search for a guiding light
The calling of the whales is heard
Throughout the dead of night

Dolphins swim inside me
And the seabirds come to dine
I am home to many creatures
Beneath the sunlight how I shine

And when the day has ended
And the sun has set on me
I'll rest beneath the moonlight
And stay as calm as I can be

I am in motion
I am blue
Love is an ocean
I'm anchored in you

Awww Sue this is so magnificent. You have captured the beauty and usefulness of the ocean. How I do love the beach and the ocean.  Hugs, Marti
